LYNNWOOD — Police are looking for a man who attempted to rob a Lynnwood 7-Eleven early Thursday.

He wielded what appeared to be a firearm. The cashier refused to give him money, and he left with stolen merchandise.

It happened just after 1 a.m. The store is at 188th Street SW and Highway 99. A police dog track was unsuccessful.

The man was described as white, apparently in his 40s and about 6-foot. He wore a blue beanie, black jacket, khaki pants and hospital-style gloves.
